I didn't mind Becker when it was on, actually. Ted Danson does caustic humor well. When compared to another TV doctor who came along a few years later whose character also relied heavily on witty insults -- Greg House -- then I agree that Becker seems unimaginative and pretty pedestrian.

I'd concur with those who said Joey. That was a train wreck of a show. Does the Michael Richards show count? He was pretty much cast as Kramer in that show, correct? If so, then I would say that.

I forgot about that one. "What about Christine" actually is decent.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus also won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress for that portrayal. I wasn't a fan, but it definitely does not belong on this list.

Dan from Night Court had several shows that I kinda liked.....but also can't remember any of their names. Lol

The Tom Arnold show was atrocious but had maybe the funniest Chris Farley scene ever.

Considering the cast.....BBT is almost a spinoff show from Rosanne

Perhaps I missed the vibe on that one then. I'll bare the blame. M'bad. M'bad.

Joannie loves Chachi (probably spelled that wrong). Happy Days was great, but the spinoff sucked.
My girlfriend & I were talking about this and couldn't remember another show that had as many spinoffs as Happy Days. Joanie Loves Chachi, as you mentioned, Laverne & Shirley and Mork & Mindy.

All in the Family had quite a few spinoffs.

Either way, it wasn't a spinoff of Seinfeld, so not sure why it was mentioned at all in this thread. To be fair though, others don't seem to know what a spinoff show is.
